You are told to “Get a good education, then a good job, marry, have a child, earn a lot of money, save money” and your life will be good. However, you find out that none of these hold true. In this article, I shall teach you how to find a better meaning in life through Scientific models, and how models can guide you in life better.

A. What is a Model or Theory?
A model or theory is a framework, which can be either mathematical or logical that can be used to understand the truth of the universe.
Essentially a theory or model is like a system, where if you input an observation, the system will produce an explanation. You can then use the explanation to understand similar phenomena.
A theory is robust if it is consistent in space and time
Because our reality is a fabric of space and time, a robust model is one that doesn’t change with space and time. This means that if there is a theory that explains a set of current observations, then the same theory should be able to explain similar observations from the past, should be able to explain similar observations in the future, should hold true in explaining a phenomenon in America, or Australia and so on.
The other principles of a scientific theory/model will be elaborated as we go further.
